Transact SQL :: Dashes Appearing In EMAILS Sent By Database Mail
Sep 14, 2015
I have created a job which executes a procedure which executes and creates logs of StartTime and EndTime and records affected. The last step of the job sends mails to recipients from the logs table. Though I get the info correctly I get all annoying dashes for 4-5 lines between each line of message. How to remove the dashes.
Below is the code i use to send mails.
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name='SQL Mail Service',
@recipients='biscribbler@gmail.com',
@copy_recipients='biscribbler@gmail.com',
@subject='SOFT SCRUB Completed for LiveDB',
[Code] ....

I have been using database mail for quite a few years now. I started using it with SQL Server 2005 and then it worked fine. Then we went over to SQL 2012 and the problems started. At first I could not get any e-mails out and read a post by Microsoft that a patch needs to come out but not available yet. That was in 2012. Presumably the patch came out with windows updates and my DB Mail started working. Now, however, I have the problem that some e-mails do get sent but the majority failed.
I use this so that whenever a user captures certain data to update a person's status on the database then an automatic e-mail will be sent to that person to inform them of their status at this company.

I have the following code on a form:
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="building_a" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:vol1ConnectionString4 %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [E_MAIL] FROM [Sheet4$] WHERE ([BUILDING] LIKE '%' + @BUILDING+ '%')" OnSelecting="building_a_Selecting">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:Parameter DefaultValue="a" Name="BUILDING" Type="String" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="building_b" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:vol1ConnectionString4 %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [E_MAIL] FROM [Sheet4$] WHERE ([BUILDING] LIKE '%' + @BUILDING+ '%')" OnSelecting="building_b_Selecting">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:Parameter DefaultValue="b" Name="BUILDING" Type="String" />
</SelectParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>
<asp:TextBox ID="subj" runat="server" Width="500px">Subject</asp:TextBox><br /><br />
<asp:TextBox ID="messg" runat="server" Rows="20" TextMode="MultiLine" Width="500px">Message</asp:TextBox><br /><br />
<asp:Button ID="bldga" runat="server" Text="Building A" OnClick="Button1_Click" /><br /><br /><asp:Button ID="bldgb" runat="server" Text="Building B" OnClick="Button2_Click" /><br /><br />
<asp:Label ID="resultLabel1" runat="server" ForeColor="red"></asp:Label>
And I have the following code behind:protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
try
{MailAddress fromAddress = new MailAddress("me@mydomain.com", "My Name");MailAddress toAddress = new MailAddress("them@theirdomain.com");
message.From = fromAddress;
message.To.Add(toAddress);
message.Subject = subj.Text;message.IsBodyHtml = false;
message.Body = messg.Text;smtpClient.Host = "myhost";
smtpClient.Send(message);resultLabel1.Text = "Email sent!";
}catch
{resultLabel1.Text = "Send failure";
}
}
The queries get e-mail addresses from a SQL database for all people who work in a particular building.
The buttons will send an email if I give a To address.
How do I write the code so that clicking on the "Building A" button will send the e-mail to the addresses from the query results individually?
Any ideas?

I'm new to programming and to databases so apologies if this sounds like a stupid question.
I have a html page with a simple javascript function that uses the href mailto tag to send an email to a normal email address. I was wondering if it would be posssible to send the email directly to an SQL Server database, without having to pass through an intermediate parsing app. It would mean assigning an email address to the database. Is this possible with SQL Server? I know there would still be problems with parsing the email content to the appropriate fields, but would the sending of the email to the database in itself be possible?
I haven't much experience using databases and I don't currently have access to the SQL Server Express database that will be used to store the email content, so I'm not sure how difficult an operation this would be. I've looked on the internet but I haven't been able to find anything. I was hoping someone here might have done something similar, either with SQL Server or with any other database.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
I have a stored procedure (works form the SQL side). It is supposed to update a table, however it is not working, please help. What is supposed to happen is I have a delete statement deleting a payment from the payment table. When the delete button is pushed a trigger deletes the payment from the payment table and transfers it to the PaymentDeleted table. The stored procedure is supposed to update the PaymentDeleted table with the empID and reason for deleting, the delete and transfer work fine, however these 2 fields are not updated. Below is the sp and below that is the vb code. Thanks, Karen
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.PaymentDeletedInfoTrail (@EmpID_WhoDeleted varchar(10), @Reason_Deleted varchar(255), @PmtDeletedID int)
AS
BEGIN
UPDATE dbo.PaymentDeleted
SET EmpID_WhoDeleted = @EmpID_WhoDeleted
WHERE PmtDeletedID = @PmtDeletedID
UPDATE dbo.PaymentDeleted
SET Reason_Deleted = @Reason_Deleted
WHERE PmtDeletedID = @PmtDeletedID
END
Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdSubmit.Click
Me.Validate()
If Me.IsValid Then
Dim DR As SqlClient.SqlDataReader
Dim strPmtID As String
strPmtID = lblPmtIDDel.Text
Dim MySQL As String
MySQL = "DELETE From Payment WHERE PmtID = '" & strPmtID & "'"
Dim MyCmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand(MySQL, SqlConnection1)
SqlConnection1.Open()
DR = MyCmd.ExecuteReader(System.Data.CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
SqlConnection1.Close()
Dim strDeletePmt As String
strDeletePmt = lblPmtIDDel.Text
Dim cmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand("PaymentDeletedInfoTrail", SqlConnection1)
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Dim myParam As SqlClient.SqlParameter
myParam = cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlClient.SqlParameter("@PmtDeletedID", SqlDbType.Int))
myParam.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input
myParam.Value = lblPmtIDDel.Text
myParam = cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlClient.SqlParameter("@EmpID_WhoDeleted", SqlDbType.VarChar))
myParam.Value = txtEmpIDDelete.Text
myParam = cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlClient.SqlParameter("@Reason_Deleted", SqlDbType.VarChar))
myParam.Value = txtDeleteComments.Text
SqlConnection1.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
SqlConnection1.Close()
End If
Response.Redirect("PaymentVerification.aspx")

Hello
I have got a script which gives the mail to the dba mail box when database backup fails.
In the script I want to make a change so that I get the particular database name , on what ever database i implement.
Can you tell me some suggestions.
The script I am using is :
use master
go
alter PROCEDURE dbo.SendMail
@to VARCHAR(255),
@subject VARCHAR(255),
@message VARCHAR(8000)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE
@rv INT,
@from VARCHAR(64),
@server VARCHAR(255);
SELECT
@from = 'testsql2000@is.depaul.edu',
@server = 'smtp.depaul.edu';
select @message = @message + char(13) + Char(13) + @@servername + '-'+ db_name()+ '-' + 'Backup Status Failed' + Char(13)
EXEC @rv = dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail
@to = @to,
@from = @from,
@message = @message,
@subject = @subject,
@server = @server;
END
GO
--- After the above script is run the following should be given in the 2nd step when
--- the backup jobs are scheduled ------
exec master.dbo.sendmail
@to = 'dvaddi@depaul.edu',
@subject =' Test sqlserver 2000',
@message = '' ;

Hi every body
I want to send a simple mail using DATABASE MAIL feature in SQL SERVER 2005.
I've defined a public profile.
I've enabled Database Mail stored procedures through the Surface Area Configuration .
but I can't send a mail with sp_send_dbmail stored procedure in 'msdb' database .
when I execute sp_send_dbmail in the Managment Studio the message is
"Mail queued" but the mail is not sent.
Could it be related to Service Broker?Because the Surface Area Configuration indicates:'this inctance does not have a Service Broker endpoint'.If so, how should I make an endpoint?
here is the log file after executing sp_send_dbmail:
1) "DatabaseMail process is started"
2) "The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 2 (2007-03-08T00:49:29). Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it)."
The DatabaseMail90.exe is triggred ,so the mail is transfered to the mail queue but DatabaseMail90.exe couldn't give the mail to SMTP server.The promlem is what should I do to make DatabaseMail90.exe able to connect to the server?
please help me.

I want to send an email twice a day, from database. So I have planned to make a storedproce which will be called by a job (which will select some record from one table and put it in other table based on a flag) but I want to run it in a transaction so that if email is send successfully then only it should commit else it should rollback.
How can i find that "Mail queued" now i should commit.

I would like to use sp_send_dbmail, but I only want to send mail if there are any records returned.
I have found some solutions, but you must always first check if there is any record and later you can call "sp_send_dbmail" and within you must again query database for results.
What I want to do is to query database just once, because I dont want to use server performance two times. Query is bit complicated.

Hi!
I run a query that returns strings that look like this: 08-07, 06-07,04-05 etc. But when I copy the query outuput from Management Studion in SS2005 into Excel 2003, strings get converted into custom dates such as 8-Jun, 9-Jul, 4-May etc in Excel. Is there anthing I can do in T-SQL to prevent this conversion? The strings are set as char(5) datatype in a T-SQL view.
Thanks.

Hi,I have a large table with a 'datetime' column that has date and timevalues in it. The data is in this format:2007-10-02 09:54:00.000The table is called 'profile' and the column 'msgdate'I want to return only rows that match a specific date. So far I havethe following query working:select * from profile where msgdate like '%2007%'This returns all rows that start with '2007'. However I cannot seem toge the syntax that will allow me to return a specific date, e.g.2007-10-02I have researched this, trying all sorts of queries with escapecharacters/sequences because of the dash character, but I cannot getit to return anything. Most of my queries have ran without error, itsjust that no data is returned.James

when i do a bulk insert with dashes (i.e. one - two), i get the character u with two dots above it ( Ü ) in place of all the dashes? can't seem to figure out why. the field terminator is a comma ( , ).
i'm inserting just text with dashes into char(75) field.
can someone explain and provide a solution? i would greatly appreciate it!
my script is quite simple, maybe i'm missing something.
Code Snippet
bulk insert testtable
from '\localc$adjust.txt'
with (fieldterminator = ',')
thanks!

Ok. Here is a weird problem.
I have a package which contains a variable with the value of a UNC sharename. The hostname in the share contains dashes.
I am trying to create a SQL Agent entry to execute said package. Because the package is now in production I want to pass in a new value for the sharename variable. I use the SQL @@SERVERNAME variable to build the package command. (Notice the BlotterUploadFolder variable at the end.)
SELECT @command = N'/FILE "\' + @@SERVERNAME + 'PackagesMiddleOfficeReconcilliationImportManualBlotter_AccountTransfers.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW /CONNECTION MiddleOfficeDb;"Data Source=' + @@SERVERNAME + ';Initial Catalog=MiddleOffice;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" /SET package.variables[BlotterUploadFolder].Value;\' + @@SERVERNAME + 'ManualBlottersUploads'
If I print the @command variable right after setting it, I get what I expect.
/FILE "\PRD-NY-DB-01PackagesMiddleOfficeReconcilliationImportManualBlotter_AccountTransfers.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW /CONNECTION MiddleOfficeDb;"Data Source=PRD-NY-DB-01;Initial Catalog=MiddleOffice;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" /SET package.variables[BlotterUploadFolder].Value;\PRD-NY-DB-01ManualBlottersUploads
If I cut-paste this into cmd window and execute it with DTExec.exe the package works fine. But when I run the schedule task it causes an error. When I go into the Job Properties dialog to look at the step, I see the value (in the "Set values" table) set to \PRD instead of \PRD-NY-DB-01.
If I modify the SELECT command above to put double-quotes around the value, the value is correct in the Job Properties dialog but causes an error when I exec it with DTExec.
/FILE "\PRD-NY-DB-01PackagesMiddleOfficeReconcilliationImportManualBlotter_AccountTransfers.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW /CONNECTION MiddleOfficeDb;"Data Source=PRD-NY-DB-01;Initial Catalog=MiddleOffice;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" /SET package.variables[BlotterUploadFolder].Value;"\PRD-NY-DB-01ManualBlottersUploads"
causes the error
Option "-NY" is not valid.
Hopefully somebody has an idea of what is going on.
Thanks.

Hello,I have had a request, one of our tables is used as a report and I have beenasked that all fieldnames for months have dashes in them,like Jan-05 instead of Jan05 and so on...Now what we have is a CURSOR which loops through all values in another tablegenerating these fieldnames, like 'Jan-05', Feb-05' etc..Then the table definition is modified so these months display as fieldnames.That is fine,Except later it calls another stored procedure which inserts values fromanother table into this one.INSERT INTO TableNameSELECT *FROM TablenameObviously this is failing because the newly amended table now has dashes inthe fieldnames now.Now as the fieldnames are created dynamically I cannot simply do INSERTTablename ([Jan-05], [feb-5]) etc, as one would normally do,How could I do this bearing in mind its not always going to be 12 months weuse,Basically I am asking how can I modify this INSERT statement so it takesinto account the fieldnames with dashes in themBearing in mind I don't know what the fieldnames are called as they arecreated dynamically by a CURSOR in a different routine.And its not always 12 months.have you any ideas?and the dashes are requiredJayne

Using the "set values" tab, I am trying to set the values of package variables to strings that contain spaces and/or dashes. If I run the package using the integrations services server, it runs perfectly. If I schedule the package on SQL Server agent, I get the following error.
"Executed as user: GBPSQLServer. Microsoft (R) SQL Server Execute Package Utility Version 9.00.3042.00 for 64-bit Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1984-2005. All rights reserved. Option "-restofstring" is not valid. The command line parameters are invalid. The step failed."
Looking at the command line generated by the SQL Agent interface, the value is quoted using double quotes like this:
/SQL "PackageName" /SERVER SQL1 /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /SET "Package.Variables[LogFolder].Value";"\remoteservernameinetpub he-restofstring
estofstring" /REPORTING E
It seems that the command line parser is not recognising the quotes, or maybe the slashes are throwing it off, or sql server agent is doing something funny to the command line before it executes it.
Anybody got any ideas?

I have generated a .dsv using named queries.
The dsv consists of 3 tables:
1)CLIENT
2)client_guarantor.
3)client_contacts.
The client_guarantor and client_contacts tables both have a foreign key into the CLIENT table via the column CLIENT.client_id. To give you a visual, the .dsv design view would look something like this:
client_guarantor <- CLIENT -> client_contacts.
I use this .dsv to generate a model and deploy it. My problem arises once I get into report builder. It will not let me build a report that uses columns from all three tables. For instance, if i pull a column from the CLIENT table, then a column from the client_contacts table, and next try to get anything from the client_guarantor table, report builder lets me navigate back to the client_guarantor table (because i have added a column from CLIENT) but wont let me add any columns from client_guarantor to the report.
Am i missing something? I assume that since the CLIENT table can see both the client_guarantor and client_contacts tables, if I add anything from the CLIENT table into my report, I should have access to both other tables located in my model. Am I wrong in this assumption, or do I need to add some flag to my model or something??? Any help or insight is appreciated.

In the data flow, I have an "OLE DB source" container that calls an SP. The SP does a select statement at the end. If I hit the "Preview" button I'm seeing the results come back, however, when I go to the columns I'm not seeing anything. I don't see the column name. Is there any reason why I don't seem to see this column coming back?

Hi,We have a SQL server db backend for our ERP system. I have written aCrystal Report to extract data from one particular table calleditemspecbomw (c.30000 records) which contains amongst other thingsBill of Materials costings. When I run the report I know that somerows are missing as when I look at values through the ERP systemitself, the values are different.What I have found is that when I run the equivalent ERP system report,the Crystal Report I have written shows extra rows. SQL Query Analyserbehaves exactly the same as the report I have written even when usinga "select * from". I have tested opening up a bigger tables (c. 700000records) which appears without a problem. If anyone knows why thismystery is happening, I woould be grateful for your help.Many thanks,Tony.
